The producer of Big Big World is involving many
techniques....computer animation, animatronics
and puppets, and has on his previous Bear in the
Big Blue House also involved some shadow play.

If it helps some of you feel better about it all,
it hasn't been smooth sailing for them, I've read
they've had a battle with a writers strike and
federal grant money lost..because of a controversial episode.

Technically however, I think the look of the
show, while somewhat Muppety, is also involving
complex sets, motion control, matte keying
techniques and animation in new ways.   These are
the techniques we have been involved with
AxTelevision.  Caught my eye to say the least.

I'd still love to hear more about the show.
